Detailed Description
Diabetes mellitus is defined as a group of metabolic disorders characterized by chronic hyperglycemia with disturbances in carbohydrates, fat, and protein metabolism resulting from defects in insulin secretion, insulin action, or both. The effects of diabetes mellitus include long-term damage, dysfunction and failure of various organs: eyes, kidneys, nerves, heart, and blood vessels . Diabetes Mellitus is broadly classified into two types. Diabetes due to reduced insulin secretion from islet cells of pancreas is are known as type 1 and Diabetes due to combination of insulin resistance , reduced or increased insulin secretion are known as type 2.
One of the main detrimental effects of diabetes is its downregulation of immune system. It affects the immune cell function, up-regulates cytokines from monocytes or leukocytes and down-regulates the various growth factors predisposing to chronic inflammation, progressive tissue breakdown and reduced tissue repair capacity . So body becomes increasingly susceptible to infections and worsens if the blood glucose levels are not brought back to normal range .Oral symptoms of uncontrolled diabetes may comprise a plethora of conditions, such as dry mouth, tooth decay, periodontal diseases, delayed wound healing, and increased incidence of infection following surgery.
Diabetes mellitus inhibits collagen fibril formation and also interferes with collagen cross-linking and may impair degradation of matrix proteins and subsequent tissue remodeling , leading to poor wound healing in diabetics. Poor wound healing is similar in diabetic dental pulp.
Apical periodontitis is a chronic inflammatory lesion of the periapical region caused due to release of infectious products from the infected root canal system in the case of necrotic non vital pulp. It is characterized by periapical bone loss which does not heal unless the irritating agent is removed.
Thus, pro-inflammatory status and impaired immune response associated with systemic diseases can affect the reparative response of the dental pulp and periapical healing.Periapical immune response localizes the infection within the confines of the root canal system and prevents its systemic dissemination. In the host immune system, neutrophil is the first defense line when pathogens invade. Diabetes mellitus seriously impairs the function and bactericidal activity of neutrophils.
Apical periodontitis and chronic periodontitis share many common features including common microbiota and chronic nature of the disease. Several studies have been conducted linking periodontal disease and diabetes mellitus in terms of prevalence and worsening of glycaemic control in diabetic's patients.
Many studies have been done focusing on the effect of periodontal therapy on glycemic control in diabetes, including reviews and meta-analysis Although there are few studies which focus on healing of periradicular lesions after nonsurgical root canal treatment. Further research is necessary in this area to solidify our understanding on periapical healing and glycaemic control.
Aims and objectives To evaluate the clinical and radiographic success of primary non-surgical root canal treatment in teeth with apical periodontitis in good controlled/poor controlled diabetics To evaluate the clinical and radiographic success of primary non-surgical root canal treatment in teeth with apical periodontitis in diabetic patients (well controlled and poor controlled diabetics)/non-diabetics.
To evaluate the HbA1c levels as a means of glycemic control during the treatment of apical periodontitis in well controlled/poor controlled diabetic patients.
MATERIALS AND METHODS This study will be conducted in the department of conservative dentistry and endodontics, post graduate institute of dental sciences, Rohtak. Study subjects will be obtained from the pool of OPD patients in the Department of conservative dentistry and endodontics, PGIDS, Rohtak. Protocol for the study will be submitted for approval to institutional ethical committee of PGIDS Rohtak.
METHODOLOGY Prior to treatment a thorough clinical and radiological examination will be carried out.
A thorough history will be taken from each patient. Prior informed consent will be taken after explaining the procedure, risks and benefits.
Clinical procedure:
A total of 75 patients (n=25 in each group) will be included in the study
Sample size determination:
Sample size was determined using Karlsson's method with a power of 0.90 , P < 0,05% and standard deviation ± 0.50 according to which a sample of minimum 21 patients in each group was calculated , but keeping in mind the attrition a total of 25 patients will be recruited in each group .
First Appointment
Mature mandibular permanent molar with diagnosis of apical periodontitis (as confirmed clinically & by periapical radiograph) will be chosen for the study.
All periapical radiographs will be exposed by using constant kVP, mA and exposure time (70 KVP, 8 mA, 0.8 sec.) with a Rinn paralleling device and processed manually.
A customized zig will be prepared using addition silicone for each patient to keep as a future reference for film placement.
Fasting and post prandial blood glucose test & glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c) test will be done to evaluate the diabetic status of the patient.
Patients will be divide into three groups Good control diabetic patients- HbA1c levels ranging from 6.5%-7.5% Poor control diabetic patients-HbA1c levels greater than 7.5% Non diabetic Healthy controls-HbA1c levels less than 6.5% After administration of local anesthesia, rubber dam isolation of involved tooth will be done.
Acess cavity will be prepared using carbide burs in high speed hand piece with copious irrigation.
Negotiation of canals will be done. Working length will be determined using root ZX apex locator and will be verified radiographically.
Coronal enlargement will be done using Gates-Glidden drills. Hand files No. 10, 15 and 20 were used till working length (WL) to prepare a smooth reproducible glide path.
Canals will be prepared using the crown down technique with protaper rotary instruments in which coronal enlargement will be be done by Sx,S1 and S2. Finishing until the apex will be done by F1 and F2.
5ml of 5.25% sodium hypochlorite will be used for optimal irrigation after each instrument.
After completion of canal instrumentation , the canals will be irrigated with 5.0 ml of 17% ethylene-diamine-tetra acetic acid for 1minute followed by a final irrigation with 5.0 ml of 5.25% sodium hypochlorite Canals will be dried with absorbent paper points and filled with a paste of calcium hydroxide; the access cavity will be restored with intermediate restorative material.
The Patients will be recalled after 1 week. Second Appointment At the next appointment, the paste will be removed with H-files, copious irrigant with 5.25% NaOCl will be done; and canals will be dried with paper points.
Canals will be obturated with the Gutta-Percha and zinc Oxide-Eugenol based sealer.
After obturation, the cavity will be restored permanently. Immediate post-operative radiograph will be taken using preset exposure parameters and will be processed manually Follow up clinical and radiographic examination will be carried out at 3 months, 6 months, 9 months and 12th month.
